Ferrer beat Haas yesterday with 30 UEs and 46% 1st serves in. Better than Haas, but not much. After losing the first set he really showed his tenacity, and I can only admire him, though I know some people here don't.

Well it has not been to great. Indian Wells and now Miami...but Andy has really got rid of what ever has been put in front of him. Gasget has been playing great but in reallity Andy steped up and bloooo him away. This is a big match for Andy and I expect him to Blow Ferrer away posibly 2 sets. I respect Ferrer, but sorrry not in the same class....Hey it's Easter time too and I started out in Burgundy!

"David deserves to be No 4 because of his consistency," Murray said. "He's also started to play better in the big events in the last few years. He made the quarters of Wimbledon, semis of the French Open, semis of the Australian Open, semis of the US Open. It will be a very tough match.

"When you play against him the points tend to be very physical because he moves extremely well. Ferrer has a great attitude on the court. He fights for every single point. You're going to have to do more running than against some players, who at 30-0 or 40-0 down may just miss or almost give you a point. It's not like that with him. He plays every single point hard."

Fact - the last time Andy won a Masters was Shanghai in 2011 when he beat Ferrer narrowly in the final.

Andy said the ranking didn't concern him that winning matches was what counted and if you won matches will come. So Andy bring your A game, leave the doubrle faults in your tennis bag. Do bring your bag of tricks and defeat Ferrer! May the force be with you!! F

So relieved to see a 4-30pmUK start I thought the match would be on later We in the UK have lost an hours sleep with the clocks going back an hour and a late night tonight would have been difficult Do other countries muck around with their time like we do? How tennis players cope with the constant jet lag going from one time zone to another is beyond me Today,of all days I wish Andy every success.I'm sure he'll win.

Just found out we're having loads of people over today for a little Easter party-and they're going to be here through Andy's match!!Worst timing!!Grrr. I'll just have to try and sneak away-I am not missing this!I missed last year's final,and he lost.Not that I think me sitting in front of my computer is actually going to have any affect whatsoever on the outcome,but still!
